Legal Pluralism Explained

History, Theory, Consequences

Beschreibung

This book places legal pluralism in historical context, describing the origins of legal pluralism in postcolonial countries and its implications today. It identifies manifestations of legal pluralism within Western societies, discusses contemporary transnational legal pluralism, identifies problems with current theoretical accounts of legal pluralism, and articulates an approach to legal pluralism that is useful for social scientists, theorists, and law and development scholars and practitioners.
